La Ciudad de mis Sueños (The City of My Dreams) by artist Miguel Brieva is a print that shows his vision of Madrid as a city that allows for a livable present and future. The original work was created for the exhibition Raíces y Alas. Past, Present and Future of Urban Agriculture in Madrid, at the Centro de Información y Educación Ambiental El Huerto de El Retiro.

Raíces y Ala's exhibition showed the history of horticulture in Madrid from antiquity to the present day, in an attempt to recover the capital's horticultural memory. Madrid buried its agrarian origins under asphalt and tried to erase its rural past in the name of modernity. The festivities of San Isidro remind us that we have a gardener as the patron saint of the city. This exhibition taught us that agriculture has never left Madrid, telling us a story that is trapped in its banks, suburbs and plots.

The City of my Dreams is a giclée print of his original work.
